? Valvetrain Geometry ?

BTW: It's a Mopar Performance short block, new Edelbrock heads, Crane roller rockers, Comp Cam, Comp lifters, and Smith Bros. pushrods.


No junk in there.... just a botched assembly.

Been there, done that. Sometimes we think just because we bought big name brand stuff we can throw it together and everything will be hunky dorey. I had the same problem with a set of Comp Magnum rockers a year and a half ago. I thought by your pics you had the exact same problem as me but apparently it was the mechanical opposite because shimming my rocker shafts made mine worse. Factory arms and pushrods did get mine in line alot closer. Been running them for 1-1/2 yr now with no problem.
